When hospice reverts to the lowest common denominator and leaders obsess about metrics, it's time to speak. Self-inflated leaders assume clinicians give until their backs break, given no raises for years. A clinical ladder is a rainbow’s pot of gold. Others have a sorrier job and must be motivated by money. Abysmal leaders dangle extrinsic rewards for admission, hiring and EDBITA targets. “Sign on” bonuses entice people into a poor work environment. Employees’ voice equals their raise, zero.

Gentiva Board Member's Shares Magically Grow

StrangeTony,

SEC filings show Gentiva Board member Robert Forman's stock holdings increased by roughly 28,000 shares with no declared activity. His September filing showed holdings of 43,938 shares. This rose to 71,538 shares in a December 23rd filing. How does that happen with no filing in between? Something's missing or amiss.
